As for staying so fresh-looking... I think a lot has to do with being acclimated to hot weather. :-) Where I'm from, we had just had a normal summer- unrelenting super high humidity with temps in the high 80s-90s. So Maine felt absolutely WONDERFUL!!! I do think dressing like this on a daily basis helps too- you're used to it all so it doesn't feel unnatural at all. :-)<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380842536521048113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978074164262800388.post-66499929501508255032015-09-01T15:45:55.956-05:002015-09-01T15:45:55.956-05:00Thanks, Bianca!

Thanks so much. :-)
As for the quest...Hi Rebecca! Thanks so much. :-)<br /><br />As for the question- don't worry about asking! :-) No, I don't wear pants at all, nor have I for.... 13? or so years. I will admit that I'm tempted by 1930s/40s overalls, but I haven't taken the plunge yet nor have I really had a dire situation for them! ;-)Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380842536521048113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978074164262800388.post-54961992568277656082015-09-01T15:39:58.408-05:002015-09-01T15:39:58.408-05:00I'm finding it amusing how many people have be...I'm finding it amusing how many people have been to Maine or know someone who lives there! I'm glad to finally join the ranks of Maine tourists- I completely understand the appeal now. :-)<br /><br />You're right about food in Portland- we were wishing that we didn't get so full from our lunch, there were so many great looking places, but it was about all we could manage to eat a donut after that! ;-)Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380842536521048113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978074164262800388.post-45865975438801748352015-08-28T08:24:44.025-05:002015-08-28T08:24:44.025-05:00What a fun post!! :) Thanks for sharing the pictur...What a fun post!! :) Thanks for sharing the pictures from your trip - it looks like you two had a blast!!

I have one question if I may - Do you wear pants? I have never seen you in any. I was a skirts/dresses only person until fairly recently when my friends persuaded me to buy some pants and I was surprised at how comfortable they were. I am now looking for some vintage style slacks.Rebecca Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03971213598169397725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978074164262800388.post-3365273100270582822015-08-26T07:30:28.637-05:002015-08-26T07:30:28.637-05:00You are making me miss Maine so much!

And my hubby and I went to Portland for our honeymoon. There is a lot of shopping but also tons of yummy food. I love the rocky coasts of Maine! So pretty! It's definitely not great for swimming (brrr!) but excellent for scampering as you found.Stephanie Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04210449948990020456noreply@blogger.com
